Lemon-Herb Crispy Roasted Chicken with Roasted Root Vegetables
Savor a delightful balance of tangy lemon-herb roasted chicken paired with a medley of crispy roasted root vegetables. The chicken is juicy and lightly seasoned with fresh lemon and herbs, while the vegetables bring natural sweetness and a satisfying crunch with every bite.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast (skinless)
1 medium Carrot
1 small Parsnip
1/4 cup sliced Red Onion
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 Lemon (juice and zest)
2 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
2 sprigs Fresh Thyme
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the carrot, parsnip, and red onion into evenly sized pieces to ensure uniform roasting.
In a bowl, combine the vegetables with olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Place the seasoned vegetables on the prepared baking sheet, spreading them out in a single layer.
Pat the chicken breast dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with chopped rosemary and thyme, and add lemon zest for a burst of citrus flavor.
Place the chicken breast on the baking sheet alongside the vegetables.
Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the vegetables are tender and slightly crispy at the edges.
Remove from the oven, let the chicken rest for a few minutes, then slice and serve with the roasted vegetables. Optionally, drizzle with any remaining pan juices and an extra squeeze of lemon.
